Lyrics of
(Just Like) Starting Over

Starting Over, also known as (Just Like) Starting Over, is a song written and performed by John Lennon. He penned the song as a tribute to his relationship with Yoko Ono, symbolizing a fresh start for the couple after a period of separation. The song reflects Lennons desire to return to the simple roots of rock and roll, while celebrating renewed love. It was released following a five-year hiatus from the music industry during which Lennon took a ... break to raise his son, Sean. Tragically, Starting Over was released shortly before Lennons assassination in New York in December 1980, making it one of his final recordings. See more [+]

It's been too long since we took the time,
No one's to blame. I know time flies so quickly.
But, when I see you darlin',
It's like we both are fallin' in love, again, it'll be,
just like starting over. Starting over.

Every day we used to make it, love.
Why can't we be makin' love, nice and easy?
It's time to spread our wings and,
fly. Don't let another day go by, my love, it'll be,
just like starting over. Starting over.

Why don't we take off alone,
take a trip somewhere far, far away.
We'll be together all alone, again,
like we used to be in the early days. Well, well dar - lin'

It's been too long since we took the time,
No one's to blame. I know time flies so quickly.
But, when I see you darlin'
It's like we both are falling in love, again, it'll be
just like starting over. Starting over.

Our life, together, is so precious, together,
we have grown, we have grown.
Although our love, is still special,
let's take a chance and fly away, somewhere
(repeat and fade out)
There you have it. This is not that difficult, and it's a great song. So, hope you enjoy. FRANK MINELLA.
